    Awesome - just awesome! I love the 3 graces - could the symbols beneath the main feature be Leeks and some kind of 'tool' to represent Wales I wonder - so all 4 of the nations are represented? So when you have your next give-away - you can pre-select me for one of those 5 kilo golden giants! LOLOLOL!

      Beneath the figures there is a rudder and a palm frond the palm indicates both victory and peace and the rudder reminds us of British naval supremacy. There is a link in the description to our blog on the 3 graces. 😁👍 -CC

    @jrartely2572 ปีที่แล้ว

    FAO Allan Lamour - Ref Wales ancient history - Wales used to be an independant country until 1277 - 1283 when Edward 1st conqured it and the Principality of Wales ceased to exist - it wasn't until the Laws in Wales Acts of 1706 -1707 that England and Wales were unified - thus when the union flag was designed in 1606 the Welsh dragon was omitted from the flag as Wales was already part of England. I too have both the gothic crown coins and they are both works of art - however I think Christopher might have his valuations wrong.
